MIPEG crane load
monitoring and safety
systems
Since the 1970’s AADI
has offered crane load
monitoring and safety
systems through the
MIPEG brand.
It has
become an industry
standard for offshore
crane load monitoring
and safety systems.

real-time Met-Ocean
observing network. This
versatility is available
without the extra cost
associated with a custom
solution.
AADI systems for the
environmental research
communities include Seaguard
RCM/CTD, Recording Doppler
Current Profiler, automatic
weather stations, wave and
tide stations and buoy
systems. Stand-alone sensors
are available for measuring

Med vekt på
gravemaskinen - Av: Knut Viggen • mandag
06. desember 2010 , kl. 15:12
Da Bergensfirmaet Aanderaa Data Instruments
(AADI) tidligere i år lanserte en vekt for gravemaskiner
passet det midt i blinken for Nordfjord Skifer AS. De
selger nemlig stein i tonn.
Nå har maskinfører Kjell Solheim kjørt sin nye Volvo EC
210 LC med gravemaskinvekt i et par uker og synes det
fungerer meget godt.
Loadtronic 3
Maskinparken består av fire gravemaskiner og en
hjullaster og det har for det meste handlet om Volvo.
Da en av gravemaskinene tidligere i år passerte 8000
timer bestemte Sunde seg for å kjøpe to nye maskiner.
Volvo trakk det lengste strået og to Volvo EC210 LC ble
kjøpt inn. Den ene ble levert med Loadtronic 3
gravemaskinvekt fra Aanderaa Data Instruments (AADI),
den første som er levert til en Volvo gravemaskin.
Aanderaa har tidligere hatt stor suksess med
hjullastervekter, er markedsledende på dette her til
lands og har også mange kunder utenfor Norges grenser.
Riktig vekt
– Vi ønsket vekt på den ene gravemaskinen. For oss er
det viktig å kunne sende av gårde et vogntog med riktig
vekt. Vi fikk oss en lærepenge på dette området for en
tid tilbake og ønsket ikke å bli tatt flere ganger for å
ha kjørt ut for tunge biler. Vekta koster 78.000 kroner
ferdig montert og det er en investering vi regner med å
ta inn på et par måneders drift. Nå har jeg investert i
to nye gravemaskiner som jeg regner med å ha i fem år.
Kostnaden for vekta utgjør ikke mye av totaliteten. I
tillegg kan jeg ta betalt pr. tonn, mens det før var
last-pris som gjaldt, forklarer Sverre Anton Sunde.
Lastesyklus
Vekta består av en enhet inne i førerhytta som kan leses
av maskinføreren. I tillegg sitter det en
rotasjonssensor på maskinen, en sensor på bom og en på
stikka. Vekta kan stilles på forskjellige nivåer og man
kan gå inn og stille og designe en egendefinert
lastesyklus. Det betyr at maskinfører Kjell Solheim kan
laste en hel bil med stein og vite når det er på tide å
si ”stopp”.

Road
& Traffic |
AADI produce advanced
traffic classifying systems
and road weather stations
for road and traffic
authorities.
Traffic classifying systems
from AADI can utilize
inductive loops, piezo
electric cables and Doppler
radar for detection and
classification of vehicles.
The systems provide
parameters such as speed,
length, gap and class of
every vehicle that passes.
Data can be displayed on
screen in real-time or may
be stored for later
analysis.
Road weather systems from
AADI can combine sensors
from our own product range
as well as third party
sensors. The products can be
delivered as stand-alone
devices, or as an advanced
part of a complete traffic
monitoring system or road
weather system. Both systems
may utilize solar cell
powering due to low
power consumption.
We acknowledge the
challenges facing today’s
traffic industry and in
cooperation with our
customers have developed
high quality and cost
effective solutions. |

Marine Transportation |
AADI offers real-time Met/Hydro systems for docks, ports, harbour and fairway, marine terminals and offshore, as part of our standard system deliveries.
We are the manufacturer of the systems and components used to measure wind,pressure,visibility, sea and air temperature, sea currents, waves and tides.
Data from systems can be collected and distributed at customer’s own preference.
Knowledge of current speed and direction in real-time at multiple depths will increase navigation safety and guide vessels to the correct entrance based on size, cargo and displacement. This is especially valuable when performing difficult maneuvering and in narrow areas.
AADI also manufactures products and systems for hydrographic survey as well as environmental monitoring.
The data output will provide decision makers with important information and help them get the recovery equipment on site to prevent further environmental damage.
AADI equipment may provide valuable information to predict sediment movement and be input in connection with the dredging planning process. |
